Folks,
There are pros and cons of partial over lambda over classes, and which you prefer may be at least in part a matter of subjective taste. But Guido has spoken that he is virulently against making partial a builtin. It really isn't hard to put "from functools import partial" at the top of your modules. Can we let this thread die a natural death now please? -- Steve _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list Python-ideas@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-ideas Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
